Bug Description
A project owner can at present appoint only himself and teams he administers as the bug supervisor. The technical reason is that the appointment implies a subscription to all bug mail for the project, and people can only subscribe themselves and teams they administer.The reason is that no Launchpad user should receive a larger amount of emails without explicit consent.
On the other hand, this makes the appointment of bug supervisors cumbersome in some situations: The project owner must create a team, set this team as the bug supervisor, and must finally invite the person which should the daily job to become a member of the team.
We should implement a similar invitation process for bug supervisors: If somebody (team or person) is appointed as the bug supervisor, they should be asked if they consent to take the role of the bug supervisor.

Using a linking table approach like structural subscriptions or answer contact will also also private teams to be bug supervisors when there are other parties that also need to be supervisors.
